4. Post Process
Wash, dry and post-cure printed parts. We recommend dropping the prints directly into a container of IPA and let sit for 3 minutes before drying/post curing. Use the DX cure pro to cure your prints in one minute or less. These parts can then be used intraorally or to produce various indications.

TESTIMONIALS
HEAR FROM OUR CUSTOMERS
Dr. Will Simpkins
"I received my printer about 3 works ago. It has worked flawlessly. At my work I use a big SLA 3D printer. I have been using it for over a year now. I will place mine up against it any day. It is 1/2 the cost, larger build platform and consumables are cheaper, list goes on!"
Dr. Lisa Alvetro
We have depended on the ease of use, reliability, and accuracy of Epax printers in our 3D print lab for years. If you are looking for a printer that is a real workhorse with an impressive company behind it, Epax is an excellent choice. Their value is hard to beat!
Dr. Steve Haverkos
“I am an orthodontist who has been working with two EPAX printers for 10 months. I have used many other better known brand 3D printers but I have never found one as easy, reliable, and simple to use as EPAX. I trained my staff how to use the printer in a day! We have stopped taking impressions and completely transitioned our busy practice to fully digital. My staff and patients are less stressed due to not having to deal with alginate impressions. I highly recommend EPAX!”
Dr. Jamie Sacksteder
"Setting up my printer was a breeze and I have done multiple successful prints right out of the box. I have made orthodontic models and retainers that fit like a glove. Very happy with the product. Thank you again for the great customer service."
